I did 2 days plus a Halloween Party with my friends. All the tips I've picked up here over the years helped me impress my friends.
I knew to go to any store instead of Town Hall for a button ( I was with someone that had NEVER been to any Disney theme park).
I knew how to use Max pass & mobile ordering so we didn't have wait in long lines.
For the party I knew about the BB dining package and I knew to ask for a waterside table (we only had to wait 10 minutes)
I knew where to stand to get a spot for the fireworks ( party and non party night) with a good view only a 10-20 minutes prior to the show.
And lastly the thing that really impressed them was.... asking to ride in the nose of the monorail. My friends didn't really know what I was asking. When the doors opened they started to get into the first car when I motioned them to the nose of the monorail. Riding in the nose of the monorail to me is a way to feel like a VIP without having to pay for it. As much as we all love Halloween this was their favorite moment out of our days at the park.
One tip for future Disneyland friend tour guides - my friends made me wear the bat ears every night as they found it easy to find and follow me as we moved from place to place.
